Kristaps Porzingis: It was pretty easy to tell from the inside that we’re not that good of a team

Porzingis spoke about the season of the Knicks that are missing the playoffs again

The Knicks are missing again the playoffs and Kristaps Porzingis spoke with Newsday about the season had by New York.

Per Newsday, Kristaps Porzingis was the first to see something and say something when he expressed that despite the Knicks’ early-season success, something was missing. The second-year big man proved to have great foresight.

“I think it was pretty easy to tell from the inside that we’re not that good of a team,” Porzingis said after Sunday’s practice. “We can win games based off of our talent, but that’s not going to last long, and that’s exactly what happened.”

“I felt like we would make good runs but we weren’t there at that level yet where we wanted to be. And you can see it now we’re not where we wanted to be.”

“Just more work, attention to details, keep growing as a team,” he said. “Obviously, a good team needs some time to play together. This was our first year for most guys playing together. It never happens like that: You trade a couple of players and there you go, you’re a championship contender.
